Abstract
Graph libraries containing already implemented algorithms are highly desired since users can conveniently use the algorithms off-the-shelf to achieve fast analytics and prototyping, rather than implementing the algorithms with lower-level APIs. Besides the ease of use, the ability to efficiently process extra large graphs is also required by users. The popular existing graph libraries include the igraph R library and the NetworkX Python library. Although these libraries provide many off-the-shelf algorithms for users, the in-memory graph representation limits their scalability for computing on large graphs. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce Graph-XLL: a graph library implemented using the WebGraph framework in a vertex-centric manner, with much less memory requirement compared to igraph and NetworkX. Scalable analytics for extra large graphs (up to tens of millions of vertices and billions of edges) can be achieved on a single consumer grade machine within a reasonable amount of time. Such computation would cause out-of-memory error if using igraph or NetworkX.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
